Abstract

A two phase fuel injection nozzle cooling system having a hydraulically cooled heat pipe. The heat pipe contains a hermetically sealed cooling medium which has a boiling point corresponding to the upper range of acceptable nozzle operating temperatures to transfer heat from the nozzle tip to the circulating hydraulic fluid which operates as a heat sink.
